Dear Friends,

It's hard to believe that our organization has been in operation for eight years already.  During 2018, the Memorial Scout Camp at Spectacle Pond was occupied for 44 days by scout groups, scout families, and members of the general public.  We continued to support the Saint Martin de Porres Homeless Shelter by sponsoring a food drive in the City of Lewiston, Maine.  Our scout-oriented donation programs reached scouts from across the United States.  The following are some of the highlights and accomplishments from 2018.
  • In April, $1,200 in camperships were awarded through the MSC Campership Program:
    • The Craig Goodwin Campership was awarded to Jessica Morabito, Venture Crew 42, Quincy, MA
    • The Adam Beggs Campership was awarded to Cara Cotugno, Troop 611 GSA, Nashville, NC
    • The Joe Beggs Campership was awarded to Thomas Ladd, Troop 135 BSA, New Gloucester, ME
    • $100 awards of merit were given to Judas Smith, Troop 74 BSA, Kershaw, SC - Connor Cotugno, Troop 37 BSA, Sandy Cross, NC - David Goodwin, Troop 135 BSA, New Gloucester, ME
  • In October, six scouts received camping equipment through the MSC Camping Essentials Program.  The following scouts were recipients.
    • Receiving Hiking Boots
      • Meredith Schoenherr, Troop 197 GSA, Biddeford, ME
      • Nicholas Grant, Troop 308 BSA, Biddeford, ME
    • Receiving A Sleeping Bag
      • Colleen Flynn, Venture Crew 42, Quincy, MA
    • Receiving A Backpack
      • Jack Gifford, Holy Trinity FNE, Cincinnati, OH
      • Raymond Chabot, Troop 814 BSA, Everett, MA
    • Receiving Snow Pants
      • Caitlyn Young, Troop 1254 GSA, Waterville, ME
  • In October, Troop 160 Memorial Scout Camp sponsored the sixth annual Scouts Against Hunger Program to benefit St. Martin DePorres Homeless Shelter in Lewiston, ME.
    • On Sunday, October 21, flyers were distributed to 1500 homes in the City of Lewiston.
    • On Sunday, October 28, over 300 bags of food were collected.
    • 13 volunteers participated in the drive.
    • In addition to the food collected, we purchased and donated dish soap, laundry soap, dishwasher soap, coffee, sugar, and tissues.
  • By the end of the year, our Board of Directors had solicited $3,074 of the $5,000 needed to install a new metal roof on Adam's Cabin.  We hope to raise the remainder of the funds needed in 2019 and have the new roof installed by the summer of 2020.

During 2018, the Corporation received income of $11,703.  The expenses of the Corporation totaled $8,731.  On December 31, 2018, the net value of the Corporation’s cash assets was $10,535.  The estimated fair market value of the Corporation’s physical assets is $81,300.  The total value of the Corporation is estimated at $91,835. 

In closing, I would like to thank the Board of Directors, our volunteers, and contributors for their continued support.  I would encourage our Directors to stay focused on Promoting Wilderness Camping - Supporting The Worldwide Scouting Movement - Sponsoring Community Service.
